Manchester United transfer news has been coming thick and fast this January – as you’d expect with one of Europe’s biggest and most ambitious clubs.
Here’s the latest as the Red Devils look to have been boosted in pursuits of world class names such as Harry Kane and Antoine Griezmann, who’d be more than useful additions up front.
We’ve rounded up the latest Manchester United transfer news for you below…
EXCLUSIVE: Manchester United open David Luiz transfer talks
Manchester United have opened talks with Chelsea over signing out-of-favour Brazilian defender David Luiz this January, CaughtOffside can reveal.
The 30-year-old is out of favour with Antonio Conte at the moment and has previously been linked with the likes of United, Arsenal, Real Madrid and Barcelona this season.
However, Chelsea seem pretty clear that they don’t want to sell Luiz to a rival, particularly after the success of Nemanja Matic since he swapped Stamford Bridge for Old Trafford last summer.
Jorge Mendes could engineer Goncalo Guedes Manchester United move
Super-agent Jorge Mendes is reportedly working on getting Paris Saint-Germain winger Goncalo Guedes a £44million transfer this summer.
Manchester United and Real Madrid are among those interested in the Portugal international, who is currently on loan at Valencia, where he has impressed.
Don Balon claim Mendes will get Guedes a permanent move to Valencia before then looking to sell him to United or Real for £44m.
Harry Kane reveals huge wage demands to Real Madrid
Manchester United may have received a boost in their pursuit of Tottenham striker Harry Kane, according to reports in Spain.
The prolific England international has been linked by the Sun as a £170million target for Jose Mourinho, and it now looks like his wage demands may be too high for Madrid.
It remains to be seen if United would fork out that much for him, but it has previously been noted that Mourinho is a big long-time admirer of Kane and would love to pair him up front with Romelu Lukaku.
Manchester United handed Alex Sandro swap deal opportunity
Manchester United may have just received a golden opportunity to seal the transfer of Juventus left-back and Chelsea target Alex Sandro.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Juve are interested in signing out-of-favour United defender Matteo Darmian in the summer – and he could be an ideal replacement for Sandro.
It may well be that this opens up the chance for United to do a swap deal with the Italian giants and finally bring in the world class left-back Mourinho has been crying out for.
Antoine Griezmann unsure over Barcelona transfer
In today’s final piece of Manchester United transfer news, it looks as though Antoine Griezmann is increasingly doubtful that his dream transfer to Barcelona will come about.
Don Balon state that the France international is concerned the Catalan giants may be unable to afford him once they blow £142million on priority target Philippe Coutinho.
The Brazilian also plays in a similar position to Griezmann, so there may be less room for him at the Nou Camp – a development that can only be good news for United, who have been linked with the £89million attacker for some time now.
